Evans linked to multi state theft ring and Mexico theft case
Ron Evans, suspected mastermind, faces Johnson County theft charges tied to a 1990 Winnebago motor home scam and Mexican arrest linked to the Devine case. He pled guilty in 1992 to Webster County first degree theft and faced prior convictions in Linn County 1986 and Dubuque 1981. Shari Evans, his wife, admitted to 1992 Webster County third degree theft charges and received a suspended sentence. The case involves two Devines facing three counts each, with key witness Jim Thiel aiding recovery efforts. Evans defends his past crimes as escalating, while police grow skeptical of his denials.
